Moses Ingram House
404 Cotton Street
late 1920s

The small bungalow is typical of the middle-class, owner-occupied residences of the Northside neighborhood in its heyday from the 1920s to the 1960s. The side-gabled house has decorative eave brackets, exposed rafter tails, original decorative Craftsman sash windows, a side bay window, and a gabled porch with brick and wooden posts. The 1957 City Directory shows the occupant as Moses Ingram, cook, University Cafeteria.
